Thank you so much for this link theia. I've only read the section on Post Viral Fatigue so far, I'm going to find it very useful in copying and showing members of my family who just dont (or won't) 'get it' .

Thanks again, very useful to dip in and out of for the tips on dealing with fatigue after infections. -- I have asthma and Small Airways Disease, a huge problem since having pneumonia 5 times followed by incessant chest infections is that a simple viral cold or bug promotes a bacterial chest infection. I take loads of vitamins to keep an immune system.

I posted some time ago about daily Ubiquinol is a real help (as per Dr Sarah Myhill's book and the list on her 'fatigue pack'.

I haven't read this book but it's on my list 😏I have been on a mission to improve my stamina and not have to miss so much work; part of that mission includes ubiquinol and recently NADH too. I'm glad to know that I seem to be on the right track.
